NovelEnglishChapter 889 Eugene was always busy working and spent most of his tin the office back in Jepton. He had never given himself tto relax as he was always in working mode and highly focused.
After that, he rushed overnight to get to where Melanie was. He was then stuck in the high-humidity forest. He had been in the rain and even let Melanie have his coat. When he heard the commotion in Melanie's room the night before, he immediately went over to help Melanie. He did not have a good rest. It was only normal that he ended up getting sick.
Melanie checked his temperature exasperatedly. He was burning up at 39 degrees Celsius. Eugene sat on the couch opposite her. He was looking downward. It was probably because he was having a fever that he had lost sof his sharp edge. He looked quite obedient.
Melanie said, “You're having a fever. You should be going to the hospital.” Eugene's dark eyes reflected Melanie in them. He no longer had an excuse to stay behind. He picked up his coat and said in a hoarse voice, “I understand that my fever might be contagious and Merry is not immune to it. I'll leave right now.” He was about six feet tall. His shoulders were wide, and he had a narrow waist that made him look quite sexy.

When Eugene got to the door, he covered his mouth and coughed a couple of times. He looked at Melanie and said apologetically, “I'm sorry, | couldn’t hold it in.” Melanie took a deep breath. She noticed his face got even redder than before. She said. coldly, “There's an empty storeroom in the house. Stay inside and don’t cout to the living room for no reason. You're also not allowed to go anywhere near Merry.” Eugene stopped coughing and turned back to look at Melanie. She was already returning to her room with Meredith in her arms.
He covered his mouth with his fist. There was a smile on his face.
Even though Melanie had agreed to let Eugene stay, she did not want to have any contact with him. She stayed inside the room the entire afternoon.
It was not until the sky had turned dark that she heard knocking on the door. Eugene Chapter 889 asked her from outside the door, “There doesn’t seem to be any ingredients left at home. Do you want to buy sgroceries from the supermarket or order takeaway?” Melanie had expected not to be hduring the weekend, which was why her fridge was empty.
She replied, “You can order takeaway.” Melanie wanted to wait until Eugene was done eating before leaving her room to make a simple meal for herself.
Eugene left after grunting a reply. Melanie was lost in thought for a moment as she heard his footsteps get further away.
Melanie did not expect Eugene to order her portion of food when he got takeaway for himself. To be exact, he had ordered enough for five people. Melanie was not happy to see so much food on the table. “I didn’t say I'd be eating with you.” “Just treat it as my gratitude for your willingness to takein and consider this rental payment.” Eugene had slept the entire afternoon after taking smedicine. His voice had not recovered, and it sounded worse than before.
He had a deep voice, but it sounded huskier than usual now. For sreason, it made him sound more magnetic and sexier than before.
Melanie did not move. Eugene looked at her and said, “You should have something while Merry is still asleep.” Meredith always had her meals on time, but it was different when it cto playtime. Melanie had always placed Meredith's needs above hers and did not always have proper meals.

Eugene pulled out a chair. “Don’t torture yourself just because you're mad at me.” Melanie glanced at him and sat down.
Eugene had ordered most of the dishes based on Melanie's liking. Melanie ate without thinking about it too much. There was no need to be cautious as she could not be acting so wary toward Eugene all the time.
She had not done anything wrong to him, after all.
